How and why I love BTS
Well back in 2017, I was on this app called Pinterest and was just scrolling through pictures of sketches to practice, so then I saw one that had a drawing if a type of mouth, but it was Rapunzel's mouth, so when I clicked on it, they were comparing how Jungkooks mouth looked like hers, I believe, can't remember. So then when I saw Jungkook, I read on the description that he was from a Kpop group named BTS in South Korea, so I was intrigued because I didn't know what Kpop was and I wanted to know. So I went on YouTube and searched their name up and the first song I listened to was Dope, and I loved it! I was amazed that there were seven members and that they were dancing all in sync, and that's something you don't see anywhere. So from there on I continuously listened to their songs and loved them all and became a fan. So then the 2017 BBMAs happened . My sister and I were watching the show because some of our favorite artists were going to either perform or were nominated for an award. So when the Top Social Artist award was coming up, I saw that BTS was there and were nominated, and I was happy that they were nominated, so I even cheered them on not knowing alot about them, I had just listened to their music, but that's it. The reason I cheered them on was because it was rare and cool for me to see something different, you know? Like I wanted them to feel welcomed and gave them a chance, so when they were announcing the winner I told my sister I couldn't watch, because I was so nervous for them. So then my sister tells me " Maylee! The asian guys you voted for won!" And so I was incredibly happy for them! From then on, I started to learn about them, as they took out new music the more I was falling in deeper.
BTS has a way of making me understand them, I don't know if it's because they are around the same age range as I am, but to be honest no other artists has made me such a devoted fan like they have, it's like BTS music is very powerful, meaningful, and love that it spreads positivity not just to me, but around the world. I have some favorite western artists, and I love most of their music, but their lyrics don't get to me. It's like BTS's presence on stage and their music is so strong that it makes you want more. So whenever it's a ballad song that they produce, it's like I can feel their pain they are trying to express and I can feel it to the point where my heart literally aches because of how beautiful and meaningful their songs are. I love every one of their songs, and if I were to choose my favorite it'd be so difficult to choose, but the one I can literally listen to on repeat 24/7 would be Mikrokosmos, omg. When I first heard it when it came out, I felt a tug in my heart and I loved the beat of it, even though there was no subtitles when it first came out, I fell in love with it and it's a great song to listen to when you're alone just thinking of life, to the point where it makes me cry, or tear up.
We are Bulletproof: the eternal, this song is in tie with the first one, hehe.. Bulletproof is a song about the seven of them and us ARMY, this song gets to me on the part where Jin is saying "tell your every story,Tell me why you don’t stop this, Tell me why you still walkin’, Walkin’ with us”, that part to me shows that they are still very humble, basically asking why we are loving them, and how did they capture billions of hearts from all around the world.
Another of my favorites would be Answer:Love Myself, ohh this song really means alot to me, this one helped me learn to love myself, I know there are some people that are going to say "you don't need to love yourself to love someone else" alright yeah I understand you, but there are some people out there who are alone and this song can help them out by reminding them that they are beautiful and can learn to start out by loving themselves first. I have a small confession to make,when I was little up to 2017, I always hated myself mentally and physically. I hated the way my body looked, so I would always compare myself with the pretty girls, and alway would tell myself, "They are lucky", "Why can't I have a nice body?" I pretended sometimes to like my body when I didn't. I hated wearing tight clothing, like tight dresses and tight shirts. I would always wear jeans and jackets/hoodies. I never felt comfortable wearing tight clothes, they felt so weird because I told myself that I didn't look good in these. I also cared a lot about what other people thought of me, since I was very shy and quiet. I am always the quiet one in my group of friends and I always hated that about myself, but BTS changed all that, their song Answer: Love Myself, "showed me I have reasons to love myself" 🥰 I would say the way I dressed in 2012 and today is a big change, I know my body is different though in a way that is special to me. I wear what I like the way I like it and I don't care about others judging me any more, as simple as that.
Thank you BTS for all your precious hardwork you have shown us and given us. Your stage presence and auras are powerful and amazing. Thank you for always giving us ARMY everything, loving us, and creating very special moments together. Thank you for always mentioning us when you guys win your awards. I am very proud of the seven of you and how far you guys have come so far.
